Dancing to the Sound of Microsoft...

To be honest with you reader, I ACTUALLY believed that's what Rihanna was saying in her "Please Don't Stop the Music"...Sad? Yeah, i know...What would the "Sound of Microsoft" even be???

Well, today was a "youth dance"...and it was...interesting. Something you must understand about youth church dances are that they are full of teenagers 14-18 all dancing a good two armlengths apart (even in slow songs). Of course, we knew we were in for a sad dance, when Tik Tok was played in it's entirety (the references to alcohol are usually mysteriously gone at these dances).

It didn't get much better. At about 9:30 i found myself 'chillin' with a whole group of my friends, simply because the 'dance' was a CRAZY FAIL! I mean no one was dancing, and the music was rather tragic..."IF I GO CRAZY WILL YOU STILL CALL ME SUPERMAN???"~that was one of the better songs...

So amidst listening to "budding talent" plunk out various, "musical" creations on a piano in a side room, i learned about the strangeness of my church's "youth drama"...think Glee...(yes, people just burst out into song).

So after, 3 and 3/4 hours, one cardio workout (to everytime we touch), 6 different slow dances (Where we all perfected the art of turning the girl with out telling her you are about to turn her...us guys were confused on that point...), rocking out to about 3 slow dances...avoid about 4 others, correcting round off techniques (and pronunciation) and discussing the "forces of attraction" with a kid DETERMINED not to get married, i'd say the dance was a success...

and Oh yeah, i lost my voice in the prcess...

Signing off,
DG
